New to most of this, I have a custom theme that I downloaded from the SMF themes site and is now my default. I tried to instal the ping this version 1.1 because I have version 1.1.11, it says that there is an error. How do I fix this? Is it because of my theme? Please help, I would love to have my forum be able to ping stuff, lol.

no, it says the file is too large, but the text reads:

An Error Has Occurred!
The package you are trying to download or install is either corrupt or not compatible with this version of SMF.

This is the first kind of the error. The file is just 2kb and not an issue. What is the version of the theme you're using? Can you tell me the name of the theme? Can you attach your index.template.php and Display.template.php, so that I have a look at them?

In the meantime, you can try download and install the attached mod? Please give me your feedback.

I mean that the screenshot is too large of a file to upload to this forum.
My theme is Pink St., and it is compatible with 1.1.11 (the version I have installed)
Here is a link to where I got it from.

These were not what I asked for. I was requesting that you download index.template.php and Display.template.php file from your root directory and sent them as attachment here.

http://d8nite.com/Womenask/index.php (http://d8nite.com/Womenask/index.php)

Now that it has successfully been installed but not showing on the website, then it indicates that it was installed but not for your custom them. Please following the manual installation for the mod as show below:

./Themes/Pinkst/index.template.php

QuoteFind: [
// Output any remaining HTML headers. (from mods, maybe?)

Add Before:       
//PingThis SMF Mod Starts here
echo '
<script language="javascript" src="http://mods.theinfostrides.com/scripts/PingThis.js"></script>';
//PingThis SMF Mod Ends here

./Themes/Pinkst/Display.template.php

QuoteFind:
</tr>';
if (!empty($settings['display_who_viewing']))


Add Before:
   <td class="floatright">
<script language="javascript">
pingthis();
</script>
</td>

Please make sure you backup before manual edit. Try this and give your feedback.

Login to your CPanel and search through for "Backup" and follow the instructions there. How do you access your root directory?
